Trades And Industry (T&I)
Students have an opportunity to explore several building trades. Work experience will be provided in several areas of construction and framing carpentry, finish carpentry, concrete, drywall, electrical, plumbing, and welding. T&I is designed to give every student practical, lifelong skills as an introduction into different trades for a student who wishes to pursue a construction trade.
Mechanical Drawing
Mechanical drawing is designed for the beginner who is interested in technical drawing because he or she wishes to become a draftsman, engineer, industrial designer, or an architect. There will be some emphasis put on CAD (computer assisted drafting).
Advance Woodworking
Advanced woodworking is a one or two semester course where students are introduced to project planning and design in the construction of a self-selected project. This is an opportunity for students to develop new skills and build on those learned in Machine Woodworking. Project designs are not limited to larger furniture pieces but emphasis is placed on learning new methods and the challenging of one’s skills.
Machine Woodworking
Machine woodworking provides exploratory experiences in woodworking techniques, the use of different materials and individual craftsmanship. Students learn the safe use of power tools along with different processes that may be performed with and on these machines. Student projects are selected from a file of projects designed by the instructors to develop strong tool knowledge, working skills, and craftsmanship. Students will be expected to pay a fee for project materials.
